Surface magnetic keyboard with nordic layout - Microsoft Surface

My understanding is that the Surface tablet will be delivered with the colored keyboard which snaps on with magnetism.
Do you think this keyboard will be available with nordic char layout at the first release? Maybe MS will release it only in the US first and then later on to Europe?
When im running english ROMs in my android device (with virtual keyboard) it's possible to download one with nordic letters, but this is not possible for a hardware keyboard, obviously...
I think it's pretty much not worth it to have the english layout, and therefore i can't order it from the US if it will be announced over there first. I wonder how many months after the US release Europe have to wait if that's the case?

Are German and Dutch Raphaels with Standard English QWERTY?

I am planning to buy Touch Pro from either Germany or Netherlands because it is cheaper there and I would like to know from members from Germany and the Netherlands if the PPC comes with a standard english keyboard or a localised QWERTY keyboard. I am asking this because I would like to know if the keyboard is actually marked with "å","ö","ä", and other scandinavian letters.
I am thinking to buy now from http://www.2call.nl or anyshop from these list here
thanks
don't buy at 2call!!!
Sorry, I don't know about the keyboard layout of dutch or german Tuch PROs, but I know that you should avoid buying at 2call.nl.
I bought there. They delivered Touch PRO with faulty hardware and now refuse to take it back. They sent me to HTC to get it repaired (a 10 days old device, can you believe that!?).
HTC can't and tell me to contact the retailer again.
So now i am in an endless loop, wich 2call.nl should never have started.
Take my advise, buy somewhere else.
Regards,

Right now Expansys sells the WWE-Version (with QWERTY-keyboard) as well as the German version (with QWERTZ-keyboard) for nearly the same price here in Germany - llok at the Wiki for link. You can get the WWE-version on different shops in Germany, but it will become more difficult because now HTC and the providers started to deliver the German version - we had to wait a while until this happened ... So be careful and ask which version is to be delivered and shipped to you before ordering. In Germany, you may freely choose to send back the phone within 2 weeks if you do not like it (this is in fact EU-law, so it should work in NL as well - don't mention that is does not work or is defect, just send it back and claim your money back).

Dutch version w QWERTY
I have a Dutch version, it came with a standard QWERTY keyboard.
Thanks for the information. I am just interested to know if the keyboard is actually marked with "å","ö","ä", and other scandinavian letters.
Because I would like to know what to do when typing the "special letters"
Hi I have the german HTC version and its a QWERTZ and the scandinavian letters are NOT marked.

Thank you for this information. I will have to stay away from the QWERTZ keyboards Anymore info from the Dutch and other QWERTY owners in Germany and Netherlands? I also would like to hear from the British owners too.
I might be travelling to Germany, UK and Netherlands soon so I would like to have this information before hand to know what to go for.
A friend told me that even if I get the standard QWERTY without the scandinavian letters marked, I can download an available cab file and I can have them displayed by using Fn + a to get ä, Fn + o to get ö and Fn + p to get å. Is this really possible?

You dont need a cab - just use Schaps AdvanceConfig Tool (http://www.touchxperience.com/) an switch the layout to what ever you want. This is not a problem. I had a German Hermes and switched to English. Just don't get confused by the marking on the keys...

thanks for your prompt reply.
Does it mean that with AdvanceConfig Tool, I can have the letters easily without complicated button combination? I am still wondering how to get the ä,å,ö to my text messaging with this application...
Yes - at least for the german version it was like this. I flashed a englisch image, switched with schaps brilliant tool (its just changing registry entries) the layout back to german so that it was fitting again to the markings on the key. So I think it should work also the other way around, switch a german keybord to an scandinavian layout.

Can anybody help to solve these problems?
Best regards,

having french seems like a good way to learn some forean language.

[Q] hardware QWERTY keyboard

Hi
Does anyone know if there's a new phone (or will be) with a hardware QWERTY keyboard? (Slide)
Not sure about new ones, but if I were you I'd consider a bluetooth one - that way you can get any phone and just connect the keyboard when you need it and not be limited.
The ones out now are kind of second-rate. Check out the search features on sites like GSM Arena to see what's out there.
I originally wanted a phone with physical keyboard, but with SwiftKey I think I actually type faster onscreen.
